Your dog will be treated like family and quickly become part of our routine. I do work during the day, but my dogs are well cared for while I’m away, and a friend often stops by to give them extra attention and playtime. I’m home by early afternoon most days, and my evenings are spent at home giving the dogs my full focus. I also have extended breaks during major holidays and summer, which means even more time for walks, play, and snuggles.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced yard that makes outdoor time safe and easy for your pup. Each dog has their own designated feeding area, so mealtime is always stress-free. When I’m home, they have free access to a beautiful backyard for play and relaxation. While I’m away, your dog can either be crated if you prefer or enjoy free range of the home with my dogs. I also have a camera set up so I can check in, offer treats, and make sure everyone is happy throughout the day.

Information Renee L. would like to know about your pet

Before your pup comes to stay, I’d love to know a little about them! Things like how they get along with other dogs, their usual energy level, and what their daily routine looks like at home. The more I can stick to what they’re used to, the more comfortable and happy they’ll feel while they’re here. 🐾

A typical day

A typical day with us includes plenty of fresh air and fun! We enjoy daily walks around the neighborhood, and on nice days we’ll head to the local park to hike the trails and explore. At home, the dogs love playing in the backyard—splashing in the dog pool, chasing toys, or just lounging in the sun. No matter what, your pup will get exercise, attention, and lots of love as part of our daily routine. 🐾

Pet care experience

Welcome to my zoo! 🐾 I’ve always had a heart for animals, and my home is full of love (and wagging tails). I currently share life with three wonderful dogs: two gentle, laid-back greyhounds and one goofy, lovable chocolate lab. My pack is used to dogs of all sizes—from tiny chihuahuas to fellow greyhounds—and they love welcoming new friends. I also foster greyhounds, helping them learn basic house manners and get ready for their forever families. Before that, I spent 9 years working at a nature center, caring for all kinds of animals, which gave me a strong understanding of what pets need to thrive. Whether it’s neighborhood walks, loading everyone up for a dog park adventure, or just sticking to a steady routine, I make sure every pup feels safe, comfortable, and part of the family. My dogs know the routine so well, they even help teach it to newcomers—it’s what makes my “zoo” run so smoothly. If you’re looking for a sitter who treats your dog like family (and makes sure they get plenty of love, exercise, and snuggles), you’ve found your match! 🐶💛

Princess Blackie loved having Renee visit and walk with her. Princess Blackie was always happy to have Renee spend time with her. We will definitely request her to watch Blackie again!

We had a stumble with Renee and our dog (no one's fault), but I was impressed with how she handled it, and everyone is ok. You want someone who will do a good job, even when things go wrong, and Renee definitely qualifies.

Renee was a pleasure to work with. She was very attentive to our dog’s needs, sent us lots of pictures and updates which we really appreciated. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
